You can readily buy them too.

I have a couple of spares as well.

Those blanking plates are silly expensive for what they are. The little clips/legs are too weak and break easily. I've even had new ones arrive in the post with broken clips/legs.

Find someone with a 3D printer and get some of these printed. They're stronger and last a lot better. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2481694

Yep they are quite pricey. Think I bought some from Schmeidmann last year. But now I've fitted heated seats so that was money well spent 🤣

Standard desk FDM printers won't produce a great finish though. A media jet MJF would probably be the best.
